    I cried. A lot

    Came back for the last three eps and damn if pony still doesn't have some emotional hooks still sunk in deep enough for it to really get me hard.

    Of all things 'Lyra + Bonbon' was what got the first tears to come. Lovely nod to the fandom and very much appreciated!

    Then the closing song and the book being shut had me in actual floods.

    Your next Faustian contract?

    So now that MLP is ending how about them DC Super Hero Girls. I had no idea this was even a thing outside of some vague awareness of terrible online animation, but Cellspex in her latest video pointed out this is a thing. Binged it pretty hard over the weekend and it's good!

    Not perfect though.

    Two years I have slumbered...

    200th episode though? 100 episodes since the absolutely sublime love letter that was Slice of Life? Yeah I kind of had to check that one out.

    It was alright.

    Spike having wings was a proper u wot mate. Don't know when that development happened, but it was likely as overdue as the acknowledgement that he's Twilight's younger brother which was deeply appreciated.

    An episode I actually want to talk about

    Spoilers for yesterday's episode in Health of Information follow.

    To take up space for those who haven't seen it yet. Hi, been awhile! Thanks for the follow and sorry I quit out on you arguably making it to still be so pretty pointless really. Well not to those still pissy about All for You who are still looking to have a go even now years later as they can sod right off.

    To quote one of my fics if you don't mind...

    She'd heard that the changelings had queens. Did that mean that they had princesses too? Trixie wondered. Possibly, she reckoned, but she did figure that a changeling that wanted to prey on her would prefer to do it up close and personal. The griffons had chieftains, the dragons were complicated, and the minotaurs practised a deeply suspicious form of rule called

I figure they weren't going to go as full tilt as Slice. I mean how could you top that? But Shy's dangerous mission outfit, mandatory Maud, and sigh... Shy's brother weren't so impressive. Did anyone miss that guy? Cause he was around when I quit out for good and seeing him paw over poor Dashie was pretty painful.

Good Luna reveal though. Bet she practised that Bond villain look when she was Nightmare Moon. Rarity especially was a lot of fun too. That beautiful Twilight calculating transition might be up there with some of best of the animation on the show.

As this is the last season I figure that's the last episode I'm watching. Well unless I hear something mental about the ending or there's a significantly outstanding use of Trixie left to come.

Thanks for all of you who are still here, and thank you MLP. If it wasn't for you inspiring me creatively like you did I wouldn't have buckled down and learnt about how to write, and for that I'm always going to owe you hard.

Good to hear from you again, Stryke. :)

"Spike having wings was a proper u wot mate. "
To be fair, practically every dragon we ever see other than him has wings.
